Hard to believe that this song IS 10 years old one of the grooviest songs to ever exist, Koloss is an absolute masterpiece and barely anyone gives it the credit it deserves, cover to cover every song is a masterpiece
In my opinion Meshuggah has Sweden's best metal lyrics in their discography as a whole, but Quorthon (Bathory) has so much genius English songwriting in his discography as well so it's a tie
I love how this is the first time I’ve ever heard this song and then I read these comments! It’s like having your cake and then eating it too. Then it’s so damn good you have more than you’re share. Then you get sick from it….like discombobulated. No wait, dis eased perhaps. You even think it’s possible you’ll die for having so much more than you need. I mean the chance is definitely there. And the longer you eat the cake, the longer it is before you ever see King PeePeePee when you look down again. Then it’s at that point you decide maybe it’s not so bad not being able to see down…I mean cause Meshuggah said not to look down if ya wanna fly maybe. No that’s not it. I’m rambling. It’s obvious the point is to….not ummmm do anything to others that you would not want done to yourself. Perhaps also meaning don’t look a gift horse in the mouth, I think the cliche saying is…..hmm, maybe it’s just be grateful you’re alive and it is best to spend the rest of your life lifting or ascending higher through love. Let others choose and you choose also. There is a time to stay silent, no doubt. This is for many (including myself) a challenging lesson to say the least. I’m grateful future generations have the opportunity to advance, or shall I say, “Ketchup” (Pulp Fiction) to the level of consciousness required to enjoy life at its most satisfying. Yeah, this song reminds me, how lucky I am to be who and where I am at this very moment. Also to strive until my last breath for depth in understanding.

That's an awesome poetic comment right here. Originally I felt sorry for you, but the I realize you are just describing growing up into adult world we all suffer in.
Meshuggah actually do have a 4/4 "groove" feel. That's part of the reason of why I love them -- the crazy polyrhythmic sound makes it feel like the 4/4 groove is *about* to break into something completely different, but it never actually does. Makes a wonderful, suspenseful "on edge" sound.
The secret is that at least one player is playing 4/4 at all times. In this case, it's Thomas Haake playing 4/4 on the hats and snare, while the kick and guitars/bass are playing 17/16 (but think of it more like 4/4 with an extra 16th note hanging off the end).

These guys started out as a band who had to think, write down, practice over and over again, and then repeat in order to make music like this. They still have to think and practice, and without a doubt still write down the signatures whenever they are in writing mode. They are just so damn good at it now because they have been doing it for so long that the thinking part is 2nd nature and they pump out songs like this in no time. Superb musicians still use the basic tools to create greatness.
Took Mr. Haake as much time to learn Bleed as it took to learn the rest of Obzen; a fact I kind of figured was true after a first listen, and was happy to have confirmed by the man himself 😂 I feel better about how long it's taking me to learn my instruments 😂
I guess I experienced this feeling you try to imply at Dying Fetus concert. The sense of the certainty and realization of power. Rigidness , levity and assurance. I am sure I will experience same emotions with Meshuggah.
I have tickets to see Meshuggah here in Atlanta, and I am super excited! I do have a balcony seat though, so I may have to look down at some point in the show...just don't tell anyone.
It took me a long time to "get into" Meshuggah, largely I think, because I'm old and Meshuggah makes Metallica and Megadeth feel like elevator music in comparison. But DAMN! Every time I give myself the time to fully absorb a new (for me) Meshuggah tune, I always come away amazed and inspired. As it happens, it was the lyrics for "Do Not Look Down" that turned me into a fan of this particular song. The message is spot on, as is the musicianship :)
These lyrics are not positive nor negative, they are very ambiguous... i see that line you quoted as "let your existence meaning be limited to what your ego wants in a material manner, just as mother nature wants it to be",in other words "be animalistic", i see it this way because of the "hereditary dream" that comes afterwards. This point of view of mine is pessimistic, so i like your point of view more, it's more optimistic.
@@gavabundo_0072 I don't think there's nothing positive in this song, like an advice or anything like that lol. To me it's obvious he's criticising how people are generally very egoistic, following only their own goals, and destorying anything that stands in their path to achieve these goals with no regard for others.
This is one of the best bands put on the earth. I saw these guys live this year and let me tell you they do put on a bad ass show. Sounds ten times better live.
Yes - to learn it, you might want to think in odd meters. However you can get to it is good. It seems to me like it'd be easier to hear it in 4 first, with the exception of songs like Stengah and Concatenation - which are in 4 but really throw your ear if you think of them in 4 at first. I love being thrown off and then learning that it was in 4 the whole time. I'm also glad you're getting ideas from their music! Let's hear what you have some day!
It's amazing to see how they can be inovative without losing the heaviness. This and Periphery are probably my favorites because of it (come on, P3 has it's groovy tracks)
Sorry for this comment to be coming so late, but I'm having a hard time keeping my feet on the ground & my head still. Wicked good song & wicked cool band. Wish to see them in concert again if my neck can take it.
Cmon man ? :D ..these are the end times..life will be silly,,the fact you found this piece of your creator..well lets say ..youre gonna be fine..fight on Jodi =) and inspire others..thank you for posting here and allowing me to respond :)
The unique feature with Meshuggah is the compatibility with the scary imagery and addicting rythms/riffs which hit you without even noticing it. This album has really grown in me since it came out, and as much as i love Bleed, i think this album tops Obzen.
These lyrics are particularly captivating. I can vouch for them speaking the truth. The rhetorical questions used certainly probe how much I have my goals over the people I love. A good song.
All you good people just feel the groovy music. That's why they're making it for us. Forget about the pretentious conversations about the band's eternal polymetric explorations. Yes anyone with ears has always noticed that 4\4 is almost always the base rhythm and that it's almost always not the only rhythm being simultaneously played. Yes yes yes. So forget it and just feel the GROOVE. Just bop your head and air-bass-guitar, or shake your hips and make your girl shake her hips to this groovyliciousness right here! Woohoo!
When I discovered Meshuggah I was 14 and my guitar teacher was a chill Jazz guitarist. I showed him Meshuggah expecting him to be all "baaah, shitty noisy good fa nothin metal"... but he just started funkin his body and said "maan this shit grooves"
Just hear the new definition of groove...outstanding, out of time and total genius ! Thanks to you guys for keeping the fight in this world of desolating music...
The original time of this song is 4:44 minutes long. 444 represents a spiritual awakening in ones life, which is basically the main theme of meshuggah's music.

edging yourself
Syncopated bass and drums to a 4/4 beat is irresistible.
The secret is that at least one player is playing 4/4 at all times. In this case, it's Thomas Haake playing 4/4 on the hats and snare, while the kick and guitars/bass are playing 17/16 (but think of it more like 4/4 with an extra 16th note hanging off the end).
Yes🤨😘
They form tension in their songs that never releases. It can either be stressful or oddly soothing.
Can we all just take a second to appreciate Tomas' beautiful hair at 2:02
whata sexy mans
Shut up we all know jens has the best hair out of all of them

Listening to Meshuggah makes your brain release dopamine
Scientifically confirmed
I believe that
addictive as fuck
Can't relate. I'm on antidepressants and my dopamine receptors are blocked

The lyrics of Meshuggah's songs are so well written in so many ways.
This band is so timeless. This is true musicianship. Everyone who makes music has something to learn from Meshuggah. The end.
Oh my god, 2:59 ... One of the most epic riffs I've ever heard.
In my opinion, this is one of Meshuggah's more accessible tunes. Not that that's a bad thing.
almost reminds me of pantera. more on the heavy metal side, not TOO jazzy or over bearing djent

You're absolutely right. I don't like meshuggah but I really enjoy listening to this song.

Facts, but there are still bands paving the way for the evolution of metal! 🤘
It appears Meshuggah is finally getting the recognition they deserve. One of the top metal bands of this era

That main riff is so hypnotic. I love how Meshuggah manages to make so many riffs with that effect.
i love that the whole song screams GROOVE O CLOCK while the solo is blues as hell, amazing
Holy shit!!! This song becomes so much better when you know the lyrics
Absolutely perfect workout song 💪
Absolute masterpiece. From a somewhat limited perspective. I love the funk in that track, but the lyrics are what makes it all make sense.
Its so good to listen to Meshuggah when high, it's quite literally the best feeling one can have.
dat power, dat ecstasy
been doing that once a week at least lol
It's the greatest feeling ever, regardless of being high or not.
So truuuuu
I guess I experienced this feeling you try to imply at Dying Fetus concert. The sense of the certainty and realization of power. Rigidness , levity and assurance. I am sure I will experience same emotions with Meshuggah.
It’s like I want to pay attention to that solo so bad but the groove won’t let me go 😂
Before djent, it was simply known as Meshuggah
Meshuggah kinda invented the term djent as a joke.

This just shows that not only are Meshuggah the best at making metal music, but also the best at writing lyrics to accompany them. Deep, dark stuff.
